company

Our fine organization is based in Fribourg, Switzerland. Its history goes back to 2003, when one of the founders was producing the first fat powder skis on a carbon fibre base. Two ambitious engineers contacted him to improve the existing ski core structure.

With plenty of endurance during infinite research nights and powder weekends, the friends developed novel fibre composite technologies and discovered the advantages of natural fibres. This was the spark for the idea to produce performing sustainable products for the Sports & Leisure industry.

2011

After founding the company in February 2011, we discovered that in addition to sports applications, there is also the need for natural fibre composites in other industries, such as Mobility & Wind, Design & Interior and robotics.

During this year Bcomp was selected as one of the TOP100 Start-ups and 150 PME. The company wins the Venture Kick Stage 3 and the Winterthur Jungunternehmer Heuberger Price.

These awards and the novelty of the natural fibre products helped to generate different press releases:
